Heart rate variability is more sensitive to stress than heart rate in specialist police undergoing selection. by Colin Tomes, Ben Schram, Elisa Canetti, Robin Orr

“…These findings indicate that HR alone is likely not sufficiently sensitive to provide detail on the stress response of candidates undertaking essential tactical tasks that combine physical stressors with cognitive load in adverse conditions. HRV analysis may provide additional insights regarding candidate suitability, particularly during dynamic and multifaceted assessments, though the causal direction of the relationship between HRV and aerobic fitness remains unclear.…”

Which type of feedback—Positive or negative- reinforces decision recall? An EEG study by Michela Balconi, Michela Balconi, Laura Angioletti, Laura Angioletti, Roberta A. Allegretta, Roberta A. Allegretta

“…Results indicate that accurately recalled decisions with positive feedback had slower RTs, suggesting an attentional bias toward positive information that could increase cognitive load during memory retrieval. A lack of difference in recall accuracy implies that social stimuli and situational goals may influence the positivity bias. …”

Characteristics of Sluggish Cognitive Tempo among adults with ADHD: objective neurocognitive measures align with self-report of executive function by Beth Krone, Lenard A. Adler, Deepti Anbarasan, Terry Leon, Richard Gallagher, Pooja Patel, Stephen V. Faraone, Jeffrey H. Newcorn

“…SCT was also associated with a significantly distinct profile on the neuropsychological battery, characterized by a pattern of slower latencies and cognitive strategy choices across CANTAB and WAIS subtests, that reveals difficulty with increased cognitive load, which primarily accounted for the higher level of impairment in the SCT group.DiscussionThe convergence of clinical ratings and neurocognitive measures of EF deficits is consistent with the conclusion that SCT represents a distinct subgroup of adults with ADHD.…”

Reverse Visually Guided Reaching in Patients with Parkinson’s Disease by Pauline Gaprielian, Stephen H. Scott, Ron Levy

“…The detrimental effects of STN-DBS are more apparent when tasks test the inhibition of habitual prepotent responses or involve complex cognitive loads. Our goal was to use a reverse visually guided reaching (RVGR) task, a hand-based version of the antisaccade task, to simultaneously measure motor performance and response inhibition in subjects with PD. …”
